I just kissed you goodbye a half an hour ago I know you're driving to the airport but I just gotta pick up the phone and hear you one more time Saying my name I must be going outta my mind Why's it feel so long since you been gone Why's it feel so long Time keps dragging on 'til you get back home Why's it feel so long baby now I've never loved anyone like I love you So when you're not around I must confess I lose myself and I don't know who or where I am I might be crazy, crazy 'bout being your man. Why's it feel so long since you been gone Why's it feel so long Time keps dragging on 'til you get back home Why's it feel so long When I finally see you I know it'll be like you never left at all But that's small consolation, tonight as I'm waitin' And prayin' that maybe you'll call Call me, call me baby Tell me now Why's it feel so long since you been gone Why's it feel so long Time keps dragging on 'til you get back home Why's it feel so long whoaa Why's it feel so long since you been gone Why's it feel so long Time just crawls along 'til you get back home Why's it feel so long I look at my watch, stare at the clock, and they don't move I don't either, I'm just frozen on the couch Oh the seconds feel like hours, an hour's like a day It's a twilight zone in this home when you go away Please don't go away
